The development company Skanska has been demolishing the brutalist Merkuria building in Holešovice for a year and a half. The demolition period is indeed atypical, and there is a good reason for it – Skanska decided on a bold plan. In place of large excavators, on-site workers try to find other uses for all the material in the building, be it furniture, blinds, iron or concrete.
The consulting company BNP Paribas Real Estate recorded a fifth higher demand for new offices in Prague in Q3 compared to 2020. New leases accounted for 58% of the total result in the period from July to September; in the remaining cases, existing contracts were renegotiated. Also thanks to these positive signals, the implementation or preparation of several large-scale projects with a total volume of 0.5 million m2 of new office space, which should grow in Prague by 2025, continues.
The construction of a new city district in Modřany, Prague, is being prepared by Skanska. The developer will present a unique project in the European context focused on sustainability, innovation and good neighborly relations. Some of the technologies used will experience the Czech premiere. The district called Modřanský cukrovar will be full of greenery, with rich space for community meetings and life without cars.
The Covid 19 pandemic has given rise to a new certification. The Well Health-Safety Rating addresses the indoor environment of buildings, their operation and management in terms of health impacts. It is already owned by the first buildings in the Czech Republic, such as the Parkview building, which Skanska recently completed in Pankrác, Prague.
Based on an architectural design by the DAM.architekti studio, Port7 will include 3 new administrative buildings, which upon planned completion in the second quarter of 2023 will offer 35,000 sqm of office and retail space.
Katarzyna Zawodna succeeds Claes Larsson as Business Unit President for Skanska Commercial Development Europe as of January 1, 2016.
